Last year I had 2 properties on this new street. The clients never bothered me and paid on time.
A neighbor of a client, an old man would always come out to talk to me for 30 minutes
. I had no choice but to accept him this year as a client.
All of a sudden, this old man keeps getting me new clients THAT SUCK!!!
Alright, so I now have 4 properties in a row on this street, but one other neighbor had called on the street for service... a friend of the old man...
This guy is a real estate agent, and of course they all talk big but never have money.
He spoke to me as though he was some sort of big shot doing me a favor, hahahaha, what a joke. All my experiences with real estate agents, is that they don't want to pay for anything and make it impossible to collect from them.
1. He says he will give me 3 other lawns, and even more.
2. He doesn't want anything on paper about the other lawns, but wants a contract for HIS lawn.
3. He only wants to pay half price for the season and wants me to work something out for him.
4. He said, "I want to get rid of my other guy because he charges way too much"!

How do you think I should handle this? I understand that if I accept this guy as a client and he misses a payment for one of the properties, its just going to give me headaches and start a shouting match.
I hate when clients think I should 'trust' them, and that the money 'will come'. llolollol.
